# Jotform MCP connector The Jotform connector lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent find your Jotform forms, pull in submissions, build and edit forms, and summarize responses, with every person working inside their own Jotform access.

Jotform builds and runs this MCP server. Elaichi adds sign-in, access controls and an audit log on top | | Support for its tools | support@jotform.com | | MCP endpoint | https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp | | Works with | Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent | | Tools advertised by name | No. Connected tools are never listed one by one, however few there are. The endpoint advertises `search_tools` and `execute_tool` instead | ## What you can ask once Jotform is connected - Summarize this week's submissions to the customer feedback form - Create a form for the Q3 offsite registration with meal choices - Which submissions to the intake form mention pricing? ## Connect Jotform in Elaichi This happens once for the organization, before any client is involved. 1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick Jotform. 2. Optionally set Share with, then press Connect. 3. Approve it in Jotform. Jotform's own window opens. Whoever approves it decides what this connection can reach. Credentials are vaulted and nobody, including the AI, reads them back. The connection becomes a toolbox immediately, so you can curate which Jotform tools are exposed, rename them, or freeze arguments before anyone points a client at it. ## Jotform MCP connector for Claude Endpoint: https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp 1. Open Customize, then Connectors. 2. Press Add. 3. Name it, paste the MCP server URL, then Continue. 4. Sign in and approve. On Team and Enterprise, an Owner adds it once. Everyone else turns it on for themselves. ## Jotform MCP connector for ChatGPT Endpoint: https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp 1. Open Plugins, then press the + button. 2. Name it and paste the endpoint into Server URL. 3. Leave Authentication on OAuth, then tick the risk acknowledgement. 4. Press Create, then sign in and approve. Works on the web today. The plugin directory lives at chatgpt.com/plugins. ## Jotform MCP connector for Cursor Endpoint: https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp 1. Open `~/.cursor/mcp.json`. 2. Add the endpoint under `mcpServers`. 3. Reload Cursor, then sign in and approve. Set up per machine, so repeat it on each computer you work from. ## Connect Jotform to any MCP client Endpoint: https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp 1. Add the endpoint as a remote MCP server. 2. Sign in and approve. The Elaichi Agent already has these tools, with nothing to set up. ## What the consent screen decides Only Read is granted by default, which is not enough to call a Jotform tool. Over MCP there is no trusted place to confirm a write in the moment, so the consent screen is the standing approval rather than a formality. Grant Read and Run tools. Think hard before granting Delete, which reaches into connected apps and cannot be undone. ## What teams do with Jotform through Elaichi ### Summarize a campaign survey before the standup Marketing. Ask for the main themes in this week's responses to the event feedback form and get a short summary with counts, no spreadsheet export needed. ### Build a new hire questionnaire in minutes HR.

Connect Jotform in Elaichi first: you are sent to Jotform's own sign-in page, you approve access, and you are done, with no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude open Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Claude signs you in through Elaichi and your Jotform forms and submissions are available in the conversation. ### Does Jotform work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude? Yes. Jotform is connected once in Elaichi, and the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, is pasted into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client, or used by the Elaichi Agent. There is nothing to set up separately for each client. ### What can an AI agent actually do with my Jotform data? It can find a Jotform form by name, read its questions, pull in its submissions, and summarize or compare the responses. It can also create a new form from a description, edit the questions on an existing one, and assign a form to a colleague. Short, concrete asks such as "summarize this week's feedback form" work better than long sentences. ### Does connecting Jotform give the AI access to every form in my account? The AI sees only what the person who signed in to Jotform can see: their own forms, shared forms, and the submissions on them. Elaichi can narrow that further, for example to reading submissions only, but it can never grant anything the person's Jotform account does not already allow. ### Can my team share one Jotform connection? Yes. One person connects Jotform in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the Jotform credential. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the actual person behind every form read or edit. ### Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Jotform? Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi apply per action, so you can allow reading Jotform submissions while blocking form creation, editing, or assignment. A restricted action is never advertised to Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor at all, so no prompt, however worded, can reach it. ### What happens to a Jotform connection when someone leaves? Offboarding the person in Elaichi ends their access to Jotform through every AI client at once. If they were on a shared Jotform connection, it keeps working for everyone else on the team. Disconnecting Jotform once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and every other client together. ### Does the Jotform MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients? Yes. Jotform is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs. ### Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Jotform? Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Jotform. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Jotform call. ### How is Elaichi different from Composio for Jotform? Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Jotform: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call. ## All 7 Jotform tools Every tool below is callable through https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp once Jotform is connected, subject to the toolbox it is in and the restrictions on the caller. - **Search** (Search).
